Categories     Dinner

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 9

5-7 fresh Bird eye chili, depending on how spicy you want it
1/2 to 1 cup extra virgin olive oil, depending on how thin you want it
4 medium garlic cloves
juice from 1 lemon
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper
8 chicken thighs skin on

Steps:

  • Prepare your chili, discard stems and roughly chop them.
  • Place all the ingredients from Peri Peri sauce list in a food processor fitted with a metal blade/ blender and blend until smooth. Check if you are ok with the texture of the sauce (I like mine a bit coarse, not very smooth. If you prefer it smoother blend the mixture some more). Pour the mixture into a small glass jar and place it in the fridge.*
  • Place chicken thighs (or whole chicken/ butterflied chicken, chicken legs) in a bowl or Ziploc bag, add generous amount of Peri Peri sauce, cover or seal the bag and place it in the fridge for at least 2 hours (overnight would be ideal).
  • Preheat your oven at 400F/ 200C. Spray some olive oil on a skillet/ baking pan, add marinated chicken and bake it for 40 minutes or until chicken is cooked, basting with some more sauce after 20 minutes in the oven.
  • Serve with extra Peri Peri sauce next to rice or baked potatoes. Add some coleslaw too.
